DEBKAfile reports that Russian websitesThursday morning began running unconfirmed reports that Russian President Vladimir Putin had suddenly died. This has not been confirmed by any official in Moscow. But a short announcement of Putin’s death was seen briefly on Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev’s website early Thursday, only to be removed after 20 minutes. According to officials in Moscow, Putin was expected in Kazakhstan Thursday for meetings with its leaders, but failed to turn up.

(Reuters) - Russian President Vladimir Putin has cancelled a visit to Moscow's close ally Kazakhstan planned for this week, possibly due to illness, a Kazakh government official said on Wednesday.

"The visit has been cancelled. It looks like he (Putin) has fallen ill," the official told Reuters, requesting anonymity.

The president of Belarus, Alexander Lukashenko, had also been expected to join Putin and Kazakh President Nursultan Nazarbayev for talks in the Kazakh capital Astana on Friday. It was not clear whether Lukashenko would still make the trip.

A Kremlin spokesman could not be immediately reached for comment, and a spokesman for Lukashenko declined to comment.

NATO naval drills start in Black Sea after one-day delay

NATO's Black Sea members Bulgaria, Romania and Turkey joined four other alliance states in a multinational naval exercise on March 10 just across the water from the Crimean Peninsula annexed by Russia last year.

Putin was last seen in public on March 5 when he met with Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi and, ever since he postponed a trip to Kazakhstan this week, Russians have grown increasingly curious about what their usually omnipresent leader is up to.

There will be a total eclipse of the sun on March 20, but unfortunately very few people will get to see its total phase.

This is because the path of totality of the solar eclipse, while unusually wide and quite long, mostly passes over the vast north Atlantic Ocean.

The path of totality makes landfall in just two remote groups of islands. The first is the Faroe Islands, an independent country that's part of the Kingdom of Denmark and is located about halfway between Iceland and the northern tip of Scotland. The image above shows the view of the eclipse that Faroe Islanders should see, if their skies are clear.

The second island group is Svalbard, a part of Norway. It is located about halfway from the mainland of Norway to the North Pole. About 50,000 people live in the Faroes, while fewer than 3,000 live in Svalbard. These meager populations will swell on the day of the eclipse, as eclipse chasers from around the world congregate there.

Because weather prospects for both island groups are poor, a number of eclipse chasers will view the event from ships or planes, which can maneuver to reach favorable viewing locations.

Even if very few will see the total phase of the eclipse, people over a vast region will be able to view its partial phases. This includes all of Europe, most of northern Africa, western Asia and parts of the Middle East. Saint John's, Newfoundland, will see a tiny bit of the eclipse at sunrise, but North America will be otherwise shut out.

There are now many undeniable signs that a historical black swan event is imminent. The exact nature of this event is uncertain but it involves the end of a system of governance dating back thousands of years and the emergence of a new paradigm for humanity. Since the global occult leadership links their machinations to celestial events, there is a possibility this event will be connected to the March 19th super moon and the March 20th solar eclipse.

This comes after a March 17th election in Israel that is expected to end Zionazi rule of that nation. The humiliation of Israeli Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu during his uninvited US visit last week was a clear indication of this. His speech was not broadcast by the main US news networks and was greeted with anti-Nentanyahu demonstrations by Jews in New York and Israel. To top it off, a former Mossad chief accused him of persistently lying about the so-called “Iran threat.” It is even possible Netanyahu was secretly ordered to commit political suicide with that speech.

The other sign that it is not business as usual was re-organization of the CIA that was announced last week. The CIA is now under the control of the Defense Intelligence Agency, according to Asia based CIA sources. The contents of the reorganization and the new mission statement of that agency are all in line with Pentagon thinking. Just who was purged from that agency has not been made public but CIA sources say the top ranks of the formerly Bush controlled Directorate of Operations have changed. This has cleared the way for a further purge of the Washington D.C. cesspool.

A heavy duty attack on the Bush/Clinton crime syndicate is already under way. Zionazi whore Senator Robert Menendez, former head of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, is facing criminal charges. So is Bush allied New Jersey Governor Chris Christie. Now the corporate media is full of stories about Hitlery Clinton and $6 billion that went missing from the US State Department during her tenure there. Bill Clinton is facing pedophile allegations in the scandal involving billionaire Jeffrey Epstein. The final target will be the Bush family. Once the Bushes are removed, it will be possible to see if they are a front for other, more well-hidden, puppet masters.

In the UK as well, a heavy assault on the Zionazi Satanists is continuing to unfold. The latest revelation is that former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and current Prime Minister David Cameron were both guilty of covering up pedophile scandals. The top bureaucrat and secret power in the UK, Chief Cabinet Secretary Jeremy Heywood, is also linked to this cover-up.

This is like a game of chess where you start by taking down an opponent’s pawns, knights and bishops before going after rooks, queens and finally the king. By taking down these people it should be possible to then have the diplomatic immunity granted to Tony Blair removed. This would open Tony Blair to prosecution on charges of war crimes.

Tony Blair would then no doubt sing like a canary about the Rothschilds, thus paving the way for the final denouement.

That is probably why last week Jacob Rothschild said “Investors face a geopolitical situation as dangerous as any since World War II.”

The Rothschild family and their allies have been recently burning historical archives in order to cover up the circumstances under which the League of Nations and the United Nations were created, according to Russian FSB sources. The first was a fire at a library in Russia on January 30th that contained ancient historical Slavic documents. Then next was one at a documents warehouse in Brooklyn, New Jersey on January 31st.

According to the Russians, the destroyed documents contained evidence that Czar Nicholas II donated gold to set up the League of Nations Trust before World War I began. As a result, ownership of 88.8% of the gold held by the Federal Reserve Board can be traced to Nicholas, the Russians claim. Shortly after donating their gold, Nicholas and his family were killed during the Rockefeller-funded Russian revolution. However, the Russians claim that former Russian Premiere Alexei Kosygin was in fact the son of Czar Nicholas II and so there are still legitimate claimants to that gold in Russia.

The only independent verification I can come up with for these Russians statements are some documents shown to me by a Bank of Japan librarian showing that 10 tons of Russian gold were taken to Japan by a Japanese warship during the Bolshevik revolution. Japan never returned that gold. Perhaps the Russian Embassy in Japan should make some enquiries.

If the Russian allegations are true, they may explain Jacob Rothchild’s sudden concern about “Russian aggression and expansion.” It would also explain the recent hysterical Russia bashing by Rothschild servants like UK Prime Minister David Cameron.

This may also be connected to another mystery. The King World gold bug news site quoted London metals trader Andrew Maguire as saying that HSBC would be shutting down all 7 of its gold warehouses in London within two months.

The mystery of course, is just what happened or is going to happen to all this gold?

It is possible the gold has been sold and the money laundered through the US and Japanese stock markets in order to abscond with the money before the rightful owners sue for its return. Take a look at this chart here showing how the price of gold and the Nikkei stock market have been moving in identical, but opposite, directions. Somebody has been selling gold and buying Japanese shares.

The trail leads further, according to Japanese yakuza sources, to Wilbur Ross Jr. who “spent 25 years heading up Rothschild Inc’s bankruptcy practice.” Ross is “chairman of the Japanese Society in New York and was awarded the Order of the Rising Sun, Gold and Silver Star from the Japanese government in February for his contributions to U.S.-Japan relations.”

There is also a strong possibility the gold has all ended up in China. That is because the Chinese Yuan, the US dollar and the price of gold have all been moving in tandem with each other in recent months vis a vis other world currencies. Furthermore, the Chinese put up a billboard up near Bangkok’s airport recently featuring a picture of a gold coin and announcing the Chinese Yuan as the “New World Currency.”

The Rothschild slave regime in Japan represented by Shinzo Abe and the Liberal Democratic Party acting troupe have also been up to some stealing of their own. According to an informant from the Japanese security police, Abe has stolen at least 200 trillion yen from the Japanese national pension fund, the Postal Savings Bank and the Agricultural Savings Bank (Norinchukin). This money has been sent overseas to support Zionazi cabal banks, according to the source. According to Japan’s government propaganda newspapers, these institutions are “increasing investment allocations for foreign bonds in order to maximize returns.” This is theft pure and simple and is not going to help save a mathematically doomed cabal.

Perhaps because I wrote about this theft in a Japanese language article I got a call today from somebody at this number: 81-(0)80-5242-0737 saying they were “going to kill me tonight.” Clearly somebody is running scared and it is not this writer.

The Abe regime also seems to be in a hurry to establish a military government. Recent proposals put forth by Abe include removing civilian control over Japanese Self Defense Forces and re-establishing an international Japanese spy agency modelled on the UK’s MI6.

Perhaps he is in a hurry to establish a military government because there will be a trial at the Tokyo High Court this Friday the 13th, where evidence will be presented by the Japan Independence Party that Abe’s regime was placed in power by rigged elections. As reported before here, the “votes” that put Abe in power were over 90% counted by machines built by Mushashi Engineering. Musashi Engineering is owned by Fortess Asset Management. Fortress is headed by Peter L. Briger, a member of David Rockefeller’s Council on Foreign Relations.

Japan, together with Saudi Arabia and the Gulf Cooperation Council member countries are all that now stand between the Zionazi cabal and bankruptcy. The Pentagon and Japanese police and Japanese Self Defense Forces white hats need to get on the case and kick Zionazis like Ross and Briger out of Japan.

Finally, as repeated so often here, the US and Japan both need to nationalize their central banks and give the power to create and distribute money back to the people and their honestly elected (and bribe free) representatives. Money that was stolen by the privately owned central banks and their controlling families can then be returned to its rightful owners. Honest local banks, savings associations and genuinely entrepreneurial (as opposed to kleptocratic) companies can continue to operate in such a system. When that happens, humanity will be free from Babylonian debt slavery for the first time in thousands of years. That is the Black or should I say White Swan event we are all waiting for. The time is ripe now.

13:50 13 March 2015 The Kremlin is preparing a major announcement, journalists are asked not to depart for the weekend

According to a source in the press service of the President of Russia in the near future is preparing a major announcement, and for this reason, heads of relevant media asked to be ready in the next few days for a possible press conference.

"All employees of the Russian Embassy in London from the various officers and attaches the last few days have left the UK"

Kremlin preparing a major announcement. A source in the Russian President Vladimir Putin’s press service, heads of the most relevant media were asked to be ready for a possible press conference in the next few days, Vlasti.net reported.

Alexei Mukhin, Director General of the Centre for Political Information confirmed the rumor, anticipating that “something important” will happen. When prompted about Putin’s health condition, Mukhin neither confirmed confirmed or denied that Putin is currently “incapacitated.”

The Kremlin assured that Putin is in good condition. According to EuroNews, Dmitry Peskov, a spokesman for the President said that "there is absolutely no reason for any doubts about the state of his (Putin's) health." He added, "His health is really perfect and everything is OK with him, and he's working in accordance with his traditionally overloaded working schedule."

Mukhin also tweeted two messages in relation with the issue. First: “Guys, you now need the president, come together.” A few minutes later he added: “Be brave guys - Putin moved to the next level in your game…”

A few hours earlier, Mukhin had told Pravda.Ru that Putin has no rivals inside of Russia, adding that his popularity would only grow “against the backdrop of increasing external pressure.”

Mukhin then said, “I would not go against Vladimir Putin, who said that he would make the decision later, under the influence of life circumstances. At this stage, undoubtedly, there is no alternative to Vladimir Putin.”

Russian President Vladimir Putin would win in a landslide victory, if Russia held presidential election in the near future, Russian sociological services say as they analyze the results of public opinion polls that have been conducted in Russia during the recent several months. Noteworthy, Putin has never confirmed his intention to run for president in 2018.

At a press conference in December last year, Vladimir Putin said that it was too early to make a decision about the next elections. "One should work hard in the interests of the citizens," he said. "People will say who runs for president, and who does not," said Putin back then.

March 4th marked three years of Putin's victory in the past presidential vote in Russia. Is Putin going to run again? This question has been bothering many minds soon after Putin's inauguration on May 7, 2012.

According to opinion polls, Vladimir Putin goes far ahead his competitors. Fifty-five percent of Russians are ready to vote for Putin already today. The second place belongs to Communist Party leader Gennady Zyuganov, who enjoys the support of seven percent of respondents.

Russia's reunification with the Crimea has sent Putin's rating in Russia straight up. The Russians support the move to reunite with the Crimea in their vast majority. Even well-known opposition figures prefer to be neutral in their remarks on the subject. They realize that any word against it will bury their vague prospects entirely.

Today, it is hard to predict, of course, which role the Crimean factor will play in 2018. It is clear, though, that the influence of this factor will preserve just because such things are not easy to forget.

The overwhelming majority of Russian citizens are convinced that Vladimir Putin's policy meets Russia's interests, maintains stability and development of the country.

Vladimir Putin has no rivals inside the country, CEO of the Center for Political Information Alexei Mukhin said.

According to him, the popularity of the Russian president will only grow against the backdrop of the increasing external pressure. "Moreover, he acts quite effectively on the domestic political platform, providing and guaranteeing all freedoms. That is, he stands as a full guarantee of the Constitution for various social and political groups, stimulating economic processes at the same time. He does his job very well, and he has no competition inside the country at this point," the analyst told Pravda.Ru.

"I would not go against Vladimir Putin, who said that he would make the decision later, under the influence of life circumstances. At this stage, undoubtedly, there is no alternative to Vladimir Putin," said Alexei Mukhin.

"The assessment of any leader consists of several components and factors. Two of these components are leader's personality and political context - both external and domestic one," the head of the Russian Political Science Association, Oksana Gaman-Golutvina, told Pravda.Ru.

"As for foreign policy, the current situation is most serious one after the Cuban missile crisis. In such a situation, any, not only Russian voter, would say that their first priority and need is stability. In any crisis situation, demand for stability grows," she said in an interview with Pravda.Ru.

According to the expert, "Putin embodies stability to a large segment of Russian voters." "He is the leader, who has been ruling the country during the last 15 years, including periods of acute crises," said Oksana Gaman-Golutvina.

"Actually, his rise to the post of President of Russia took place in the period of an acute crisis, as Russia was moving from the turbulent 1990s to 2000. The most important demand was the demand for stability and security. This is the first contextual factor that Vladimir Putin meets well," she said.

"The second factor is that in an environment where world politics is not rich in examples of effective leadership, Putin embodies a response to society's need for effective leadership," the president of the Russian Political Science Association said.

"These two factors - the personal and the contextual one - determines Putin's high rating and explains that despite 15 years of his stay in power as prime minister and president, the Russian society still sees him as the leader," Oksana Gaman-Golutvina concluded.

the Ministry of Defense (MoD) is reporting today that the Federation is now in a “state of war” thus bringing to full activation President Putin’s “Dead Hand” nuclear order issued 29 July 2014 to The Strategic Missile Forces (SMF).

According to this report, the full activation of the much feared “Dead Hand” nuclear option was authorized under President Putin’s previous order due to the discovery that the nuclear forces of the United Kingdom (UK) were preparing a first strike against military and civilian targets located in the Federation.

The intention of the nuclear forces of the UK preparing a first strike against the Federation, this report says, was revealed by Federal Security Services (FSB) electronic intelligence experts working in conjunction with Kaspersky Lab who discovered last month a massive US National Security Agency (NSA) cyber espionage programme targeting not just Russia, but everyone else on Earth.

Both the FSB and Kaspersky Lab experts, the MoD reports, were able to swiftly reverse engineer the computer code(s) involved in this massive NSA spying operation which then enabled them to electronically obtain the launching codes and coordinates of all the UK’s nuclear weapons showing their plan to launch a first strike against the Federation during the week of 15 March.

Though information of this highly successful FSB-Kaspersky Lab intelligence operation has been suppressed in the West, some counter-news of it has been reported by a few technical websites, including The Verge which in their article reported yesterday titled “A Network Error Routed Traffic For The UK's Nuclear Weapons Agency Through Russian Telecom”, in part, says:

“For the past week, something strange has been going on in the European internet. For five days, web traffic from Texas to certain addresses in the UK has been routed through Ukrainian and Russian telecoms, taking a detour thousands of miles out of the way. Network traffic often takes a circuitous route as a result of network congestion or interconnection difficulties, but neither one would be enough to account for these routes. Instead, this was the result of a bad route announced by Ukraine's Vega telecom, inserting itself in between.

It's particularly disconcerting because of the sensitive nature of many of the sites involved. Among the dozens of sites involved was the UK's Atomic Weapons Establishment, which is tasked with managing and delivering the UK's nuclear warheads, as well as the UK's official mail service, the Royal Mail. US defense contractor Lockheed Martin was also running a VPN connection that was caught up in the redirection.”

Upon the MoD’s confirmation of the UK’s intention to launch a nuclear first strike against the Federation, this report continues, Russian military forces throughout the country were immediately activated with a special emphasis placed upon massive rocket-artillery maneuvers on the southern borders.

Foreign Minister Lavrov, this report notes, further warned the West this week that Moscow would respond to NATO “in an adequate way” as thousands of Norwegian troops neared the Russian border this week preparing for the influx of a US Marine Expeditionary Brigade, estimated to number between 14-18,000, whose tanks, armored vehicles, artillery, ammunition and battle equipment have flooded into Norway this past year.

The MoD also in this report states that the Ministry for Civil Defence, Emergencies and Elimination of Consequences of Natural Disasters (EMERCOM) and the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MVD) have issued an immediate travel ban on firefighters, ambulance drivers rescue troopers, tens of thousands of police officers, prison guards, and other law enforcement agencies who are deemed critically needed during times of war.

Also to be noted, though not contained in this MoD report, are reports from London that Russian personnel and officers have evacuated their embassy and that a mass of activity is now being reported throughout Moscow, especially in and around Red Square.

As President Putin, top political officials and military leaders are now under MoD “protection”, other reports (of unknown quality) state that the Kremlin has also “advised” journalists not to leave Moscow and to prepare for a “major announcement” over the next few days.

Though not specifically stated in this MoD report, but strongly eluded to, are that crisis negotiations between Moscow and the West are currently ongoing and have led within the past few hours to NATO’s Secretary General, Jens Stoltenberg, stating that the alliance does not plan to interfere in the conflict in east Ukraine…”Ukraine is not a member of NATO, so there is a difference between Ukraine and NATO members, because the security guarantee is for NATO allies.”

This NATO “assurance”, however, may do little to calm this crisis and avert nuclear war after the Federation’s Investigative Committee launched a criminal case against Robert Scales, a retired US major general and a Fox News military analyst, who said in a live broadcast this week that the only way for the US to turn the tide in Ukraine is to start killing Russians… “It is Game, Set and Match in Ukraine. The only way the US can have any effect in this region and turn the tide is to start killing Russians. Killing so many Russians that even Putin’s media can’t hide the fact that Russians are returning to the Motherland in body bags.”

The United Kingdom was the third country to test an independently developed nuclear weapon, in October 1952. It is one of the five nuclear-weapon states under the NPT and a permanent member of the UN Security Council. Since the 1958 US-UK Mutual Defence Agreement, the United States and the United Kingdom have cooperated extensively on nuclear security matters. The special relationship between the two countries has involved the exchange of classified scientific data and materials such as plutonium.

The UK is thought to retain a stockpile of around 225 thermonuclear warheads, of which 160 are operational, but has refused to declare the exact size of its arsenal. Since 1998, the Trident programme has been the only operational nuclear weapons system in British service. The delivery system consists of four Vanguard class submarines based at HMNB Clyde in Scotland. Each submarine is armed with up to 16 Trident II missiles, each carrying warheads in up to eight MIRV re-entry vehicles. With at least one submarine always on patrol, the Vanguards perform a strategic deterrence role and are also believed to have a sub-strategic capability. In contrast with the other permanent members of the United Nations Security Council, the United Kingdom operates only a submarine-based delivery system, having decommissioned its tactical WE.177 free-fall bombs in 1998.

The UK has not run a programme to develop an independent delivery system since the cancellation of the Blue Streak missile in 1960. Instead it has purchased US delivery systems for UK use, fitting them with warheads designed and manufactured by the UK's Atomic Weapons Establishment and its predecessor. In 1974, a US proliferation report discussing British nuclear and missile development noted that "In many cases, it is based on technology received from the US and could not legitimately be passed on without US permission."

The Atomic Weapons Establishment is undertaking research which is largely dedicated to providing new warheads and on 4 December 2006 the then Prime Minister Tony Blair announced plans for a new class of nuclear missile submarines.

Since 1969 the United Kingdom has always had at least one ballistic-missile submarine on patrol, giving it a nuclear deterrent that is what the Defence Council described in 1980 as "effectively invulnerable to pre-emptive attack". In the Strategic Defence Review published in July 1998, the government stated that once the Vanguard submarines became fully operational (the fourth and final one, Vengeance, entered service on 27 November 1999), it would "maintain a stockpile of fewer than 200 operationally available warheads". The Stockholm International Peace Research Institute has estimated the figure as about 170, consisting of 144 deployed weapons plus an extra 15 percent as spares.

At the same time, the UK government indicated that warheads "required to provide a necessary processing margin and for technical surveillance purposes" were not included in the "fewer than 200" figure. As recently declassified archived documents on Chevaline make clear, the 15% excess (referred to by SIPRI as for spares) is normally intended to provide the 'necessary processing margin', and 'surveillance rounds do not contain any nuclear material, being completely inert. These surveillance rounds are used to monitor deterioration in the many non-nuclear components of the warhead, and are best compared with inert training rounds. The SIPRI figures correspond accurately with the official announcements and are likely to be the most accurate. The Natural Resources Defense Council speculates that a figure of 200 is accurate to within a few tens. In 2008 the National Audit Office stated that the UK stockpile was of fewer than 160 operationally available nuclear warheads. During a debate on the Queen's Speech on 26 May 2010 Foreign Secretary William Hague reiterated that the UK has no more than 160 operationally available warheads, and announced that the total number will not exceed 225.

,,,the Yamantau Mountain complex is located close to one of Russia's remaining nuclear weapons labs, Chelyabinsk-70, giving rise to speculation it could house either a nuclear warhead storage site, a missile base, a secret nuclear weapons production center, a directed energy laboratory or a buried command post. Whatever it is, Yamantau was designed to survive a nuclear war,,,

Little is known about the mountain, Mount Yamantau, located deep in the Ural Mountains, near Bashkortostan, Russia. The mountain is one of the largest in the southern Urals, standing at a colossal 5,381 feet.

On April 16, 1996 the New York Times ran an article on an unusual building site in Russia. Satellite, surveillance images show that this area is huge, spanning an area of four hundred square miles, containing millions of square feet of underground caverns, with one access road built for heavy machinery to move dirt and vehicles to service the site and a railway. Two buildings on top of the structure house, 60,000 workers, all keeping their mouths shut. What is it, another Area 51?

The Yamantau Mountain Complex cost the Russians a whopping 6 billion dollars to build, there must be a reason for it's existence.

The mystery over the whereabouts of Vladimir Putin deepened on Saturday as Russian state media broadcast – then retracted – reports that he had hosted an official visit from the President of Kyrgyzstan.

Mr Putin’s next public appearance is scheduled for Monday, when he is due to meet Almazbek Atambayev, the President of Kyrgyzstan, in Saint Petersburg. But that encounter was thrown into confusion on Friday night as announcers on state television, apparently reading from an incorrect script, described the meeting in the past tense.

Rossiya 24, the channel involved, later described the incident as a “mistake”, but the blunder deepened suspicions that state media is covering up for Mr Putin’s unexplained absence.

Vladimir Putin is alive but has been 'neutralised' by shadowy security chiefs who have staged a stealthy coup, according to the head of a leading Russian Muslim group.Geydar Dzhemal, chairman of Russia's Islamic Committee, claimed former security service chief Nikolai Patrushev was behind the plot.The Russian leader hasn't been seen in public for the past 9 days.Dzhemal, who is seen as a Kremlin loyalist, said: "I think that Putin is neutralised at the moment, but of course, he is alive."He is under the control of the power-wielding agencies, who have, in my opinion, organised a coup d'etat."
